Default embedding a picture?

When I try to post for the weekly assignment and embed a photo it shows up as a thumbnail vs. a larger photo. You need to then click it to see a larger photo. Any ideas how to make it show up larger initially?

That is because you using attachments as opposed to inserting an image. If you use a photo hosting site, it will be very easy to embed the image or even using the member gallery of dPS.
